About

We are now accepting submissions for a zombie-themed charity anthology. The profits from this anthology will be donated to the Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma Research Foundation. While traditional zombie themes are okay, we'd really love to see something beyond the normal zombie fare. Any subject/style is okay and we are hoping to see some humorous and/or thoughtful pieces, some literary pieces . . . . we want zombies like you've never seen them before. Think outside the graveyard for this one. Make us laugh, make us cry. Give us zombies with . . . well, brains.
